Lets try to keep our prospectives straight. This Blog is here to help me and you continue to understand that there's so much we don't. Like why are we here and what can we do. It's not always how CNN makes it sound. There's a different out look on the way the world's run. Lets try to keep to it shall we?...

Ha ha ha! This is great. I saw the Snow White dress, but you thought to make her. Good for you! Will you make a Bell next? They have her dress too. I wonder, did you see Sleeping Beauty's dress or Cinderella's dress? If so, maybe you should make a whole Disney collection.
ummm, nothing. Why don't you tell my Lea, cuase i can't think of anything off the top of my head.
Here, let me try.
The entire story of Snow White is really a journey into the depths of the human soul and an exploration of the depths of jealousy. We always learn that jealousy is a midah that is self destructive and here we see it to be true. The wicked Queen dies in
the end of the story signifying not only the triumph of good over evil, but also the destructive pattern of jealousy. Whether physical or spiritual, jealousy causes death.
Furthermore, on a different note, we see multiple instances of chessed, kindness, and mercy. First, the huntsman isn't able to kill Snow White because he recognizes she is good, sweet, and pure, and he knows then that the Queen is wicked and evil, and that he cannot do her bidding. Moreover, the 7 dwarfs do an incredible act of kindness by taking Snow White into their home, and in return, Snow White takes care of the dwarfs' food and home. From here, we can learn ways of helping and treating strangers and those in need.
In conclusion, while there are many themes presented in Snow White and the 7 dwarfs, Snow White represents truth, honesty, and goodness. Using her character as a focal point and crux, many moral issues are explored. The two main points which one learns from the story of Snow White are: 1. jealousy is a terribly destructive midah, and 2. how to do chessed for strangers and those in need.
THE END
